Daikon Kimchi

Description

SOLD OUT FOR THE SEASON – CHECK BACK IN FALL 2024!

Just in time for the crisp fall weather, our kkakdugi daikon radish kimchi is made and fermented in small batches. We’ve added Maine-grown apples for a touch of sweetness, along with onion, garlic, and ginger. As always, hand-harvested sea salt from Slack Tide Sea Salt gives it the perfect finish.

We’re very excited to be adding this seasonal kimchi to our lineup. For now, it’s only available in the fall and winter, when radishes are made even sweeter after the first frosts. Daikon kimchi goes really well with warming curries, filling soups, as a topping on rice bowls, or just straight out of the jar – we won’t tell anyone!

This kimchi is vegan and made with soup soy sauce, a gluten-free Korean soy sauce with a saltier, more umami-filled flavor profile than regular soy sauce. Traditional kimchi usually contains fish sauce and other seafoods, but you won’t even be able to tell that we’ve left it out!

100% of our daikon and apples in this kimchi are sourced from local Maine farms, making it even more special, as once we run out of local daikon, we’ll stop selling this kimchi. We’re very grateful to be featuring produce from Bahner Farm (Belfast), Tiny Acres Farm (South Montville), Laan Xang Cafe & Farm (Belfast/Brooks), The Apple Farm (Fairfield), Frinklepod Farm (Arundel), and Stonecipher Farm (Bowndoinham).

P.S. You might notice a strong smell when you first crack open the jar, and that’s totally normal. Fermenting daikon smells a bit stronger than fermenting cabbage. The smell should dissipate in a moment after opening.
